A seal for closing the radial space between two coaxial, radially spaced, relatively rotatable parts. Each of an axially inner and an axially outer sealing ring comprises an approximately L-shaped metal part having sealing lips of elastic plastic material arranged on it. The axially outer sealing ring seated on the radially inward part has a first sealing lip which faces either the interior of the radially outward part or the axial leg of the axially inner sealing ring. To prevent contamination of that first sealing lip, the outer sealing ring has an obliquely outwardly directed fling lip which is radially inward of the first sealing lip and extends approximately into the region of a plane determined either by the axially outer front surface of the axially outwardly extending leg of the inner sealing ring or of the radially outward part. The first sealing lip may also have an obliquely outwardly directed extension located radially inwardly of and extending axially outward of the first sealing lip. Plastic material resting surfaces may be defined on the axial legs of both of the sealing rings. A sealing lip seals the axial space between the sealing rings.
A seal for being disposed between two concentric relatively rotatable parts which are radially spaced apart, the seal being disposed inside of and for sealing the radial space between the relatively rotatable parts,
